Hi! Thanks for the advice, has given me a few things to consider. I'm planning on going to a couple of days/skirmishes at some sites local to me. I've got some excellent boots as I like something that supports my ankle, they're Chicura Doggo Boa (or something like that) and I can't reccomend them enough. Will have to hire equipment for the first few spins, I do own some RIFs but they're all either .177 BB or pellet or .22 pellet, so I would assume no good for skirmishing. I also have a Umarex HDR, it's a bloody handcannon that fires a .50 calibre solid rubber ball or paintball, getting hit with it is like being kicked by a horse, so I wouldn't want to fire it at someone unless I really didn't like them! 😂 Sniping could be fun, similar to deer stalking which is something I've done a bit of, plus I know I'm a fairly decent shot. Hi! AFAIK the site closest to me is relatively flat (being in the east of England, flat is the default setting). I've been having a look around, lots of options when it comes to weapons! I've used a bullpup in the past and I like them, though I know many don't. I have the cafe concession at a local shopping area (calling it a mall would be very generous) and one of the other stores is a military surplus store owned by a former Royal Marine, so will pop in and pick his brains with regards to load bearing gear and the like.

Hi folks! I did check to see if there were any threads about this but was unsuccessful. For background, I was in a car accident a few years ago that left me with a traumatic brain injury and a lower spine that can best be described as "fucky" and/or "horrific". I can walk, sometimes even run, but my mobility isn't great and I do use a wheelchair on occasion. I have been involved in shooting sports since I was a child, mostly clay pigeon, waterfowling and the occasional deer stalk. I was an army cadet for most of my childhood and was an award winning marksman with the old cadet rifle (L98A1). I've also spent some time in the states and done a fair bit of pistol shooting. Whilst I still enjoy some of these activities I would like to take up a more active pastime and discovered airsoft whilst skimming through YouTube. What I would like to ask is pretty simple (I think) and that is; What advice would you give to a new player whose mobility is a bit limited, and, What weapons would you recommend taking the previous question in mind? Thanks in advance for any help or advice you may be able to give.
